Dissolving is when the solute breaks up from a larger crystal of molecules into much smaller groups or individual molecules. This break up is caused by coming into contact with the solvent. In the case of salt water, the water molecules break off salt molecules from the larger crystal lattice.
The types of unconformities that can occur in rock layers are: ANGULAR, NONCONFORMITY and DISCONFORMITY.
_______________ reactions transfer energy to the surroundings, usually as heat.
